"I'd encourage parents to make sure that if they do have firearms in the house, they teach their kids not to touch them and to be able to say, there's a gun here and to tell an adult rather than play with it. And sometimes removing the curiosity helps there too, but that's an individual decision," Officer Hanson said.
Officer Hanson said that if you own a gun and keep it in your home, you should demonstrate to your child how it works. He suggests in a safe area, shooting a water bottle or pumpkin or any other object that displays the impact of a bullet. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Wherever standing armies are kept up, and the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under any colour or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the brink of destruction. — St. George Tucker, in his edition of 'Blackstone's Commentaries,' 1:300 (1803). |
